Total Karita

Total Karita features two distinct parts that explore contrasting emotions through music. The first part presents Poulenc’s La voix humaine (The Human Voice), an opera monologue that tells the poignant tale of an abandoned woman, delivered in a film noir style. This powerful performance lasts approximately 45 minutes and sets a dramatic tone.

After the interval, the film shifts to a lively showcase of musical classics and popular repertoire, highlighting the versatility and artistry of Karita Mattila. Conducted by Dalia Stasevska, this event is specifically curated to celebrate Mattila’s talent and range as a performer. The film offers a unique viewing experience for fans of both opera and contemporary music, making it an interesting addition to any collection focused on musical performances.
